Problems solved by technology

These basic operations, if manually processed, require a substantial time, which may be inadequate if a great amount of fish is to be processed.
A fish processing device of the prior art as described above requires a manual operation that may be time-consuming.
Furthermore, the sharp projections 12a may undesirably damage the skin of the fish.

Embodiment Construction

Wherever possible in the following description, like reference numerals will refer to like elements and parts unless otherwise illustrated. Hereafter, "fish body" will generally refer to the entire fish including any of its members and parts.

Reference now is made to FIG. 2 through FIG. 3 to describe a fish processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the invention. As illustrated, the fish processing apparatus of the invention comprises a casing 10, a brushing unit 20, a clamping unit 30, a pushing unit 40, a cutting unit 50, and a driving unit 60. The casing 10 is principally made of metallic material, forming a rigid frame structure to respectively mount and connect the brushing unit 20, clamping unit 30, pushing unit 40, cutting unit 50, and driving unit 60. A top of the casing 10 includes an insert opening 11 through which a fish body to be processed is placed inside the processing apparatus. A lateral wall of the casing 10 further includes a retrieval opening 12 through w...

Abstract

A fish processing apparatus includes a casing in which are respectively mounted a brushing unit, a clamping unit, a pushing unit, a cutting unit, and a driving unit. The brushing unit includes two scraping brushes that are mounted in a manner to overlap each other. Each scraping brush includes an axle on which are attached a plurality of flexible bristles respectively terminating in a scraping portion. The rotation of the scraping brushes removes the scales of the fish body. The clamping unit is mounted at a location between and below the two scraping brushes to receive the fish body, and the pushing unit is placed below the clamping unit to push the fish body toward the cutting unit that cuts the fish body and removes its viscera.

Description

1. Field of the InventionThe invention relates to a fish processing apparatus and, more particularly, to a fish processing apparatus that is capable of removing the scales of the fish, cutting open the belly of the fish and removing its viscera.2. Description of the Related ArtThe consumption of seafood and especially fish usually requires a preliminary preparation. In this preparation, the scales of the fish have to be removed, and the belly of the fish then has to be cut open to remove the viscera. These basic operations, if manually processed, require a substantial time, which may be inadequate if a great amount of fish is to be processed.FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a manual fish processing device known in the prior art. The known fish processing device comprises a handle 10a that is connected to a cylinder 11a. A surface of the cylinder 11a includes a plurality of sharp projections 12a used to scrape and remove the scales of the fish. The usr grips the handle 10a, an...
